Error 80072EFD while reading and sending mail with Windows Live Mail 2012

18. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: ,

I get really sich of this.

For months now I can't reach my mail with Windows Live Mail.

Looking for a solution I find a message about Windows Update not working?!?!

What has synchronizing my mail with Windows Update to do??

Also, I read similar problems with other error-codes and this is going on for years !!

Microsoft, write a decent WORKING e-mail program.

I am not far from switching to gmail which works EVERYWHERE: webmail, PC, phone...EVERYWHERE.

And a NORMAL addressbook, not one where I have duplicate contacts, contacts which I cannot delete.

Oh, and I didn't even mention the crappy Calandar....

Sigh...

Windows Live Mail auto-corrects text

18. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: ,

Hi Folks!

Been a while since I've participated here on the Answers forums.

Not even sure if this is the correct forum for my question.

I use Windows 7, Windows Live Mail.

When I compose an email message and type in strings like:

123-45--67

It gets auto-corrected to:

123-45—67

I can not find a setting to stop this from happening. I even looked in the Office(?) Auto-correct library and nothing!

Any one have any ideas?

This question is cross posted here with no replies as of this writting:

Exporting a single folder of emails

17. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail

Issue when exporting a folder of emails to a flash drive. I follow the instructions but it only exports a single email not the whole folder OR all the emails in the folder.  I have looked at the tutorial and have tried manually highlighting only the folder as well as opening the folder and highlighting all 313 emails in the folder.  It always only exports a single email.  Any ideas what I may be doing wrong?  Emails are coming from my Hotmail account through WLM.

Server Error: 4201 Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE00002 When Trying to Send or Receive Mail

17. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags:

I have read the previous posts regarding this error, including the one started by I JYoung on May 19, 2014, and apparently resolved for that user on May 30, 2014 by Cesar_E.  Unfortunately, the solution appears to have involved changes made to the accounts by Cesar_E, and I do not know what those changes are and am guessing that I'd probably be unable to implement them if I did.

As background, please note that I am running Windows Live Mail 2012 on Windows 7.  I am having problems with two email accounts, both receiving the above-referenced error message.  I have tried the fixes suggested (removing and reconfiguring the account, checked the Outbox, etc) with no success.  I am running Norton AV software, and have tried turning off the e-mail protection, again without any success.  The problem does not always occur, but does occur more often than not: I would estimate approximately 90% of the time.

I further note that my husband is running Windows Live Mail 2011 on Windows 7 on a different machine, and is not encountering this problem with these accounts.

Can someone offer some help to eliminate this problem?

I use Windows 8, Internet Explorer 11 for the web and Windows Live Mail for email. My problem is that some of the text etc. on the right-hand side and bottom of emails is cut off when printed. How do I correct this? I have try to adjust the margin and check the "Enable Shrink-to-fix" but it still the same, does not solve the problem. Can someone help?

Exporting emails in Windows Live Mail

16. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail
I am trying to backup my emails in Windows Live Mail by exporting to a folder on the desktop. It gets so far then I get an error message stating "The message export has failed. An error has occurred." - not a very helpful message! Has anyone got any ideas what might be happening and how to solve it? I'm running 64-bit Windows 7. Thanks.

The links in my email messages in Windows live mail as well as my help icon all stopped working… any suggestions?

16. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail · Tags: ,

The hyperlinks are there in blue and the mouse changes format to the hand to click on them, but when I click nothing happens except they turn color to dark purple.  When I click on the ? button in the windows live email page nothing happens either.  I'm on Windows 8.1 and I'm not sure if I got a virus or what???

 There was a bubble that disappeared really quickly saying something about a virus but it was too quick to read.  I have done two scans with my purchased eset NOD32 antivirus 7 software which detected 2 threats and cleaned them up.  I have restarted my laptop about 6 times now,  checked my settings on both IE and WLM to see if everything was checked off and it seems to be fine.  

Please help! I'm going nuts!  lol  Thank you!

Where do I report Windows Live Mail bugs?

16. June 2014 · Write a comment · Categories: livemail

I've found some glaring bugs (to me at least) in WLM12. I've looked all over for some way to report them with no success.  MCOM  Dead end! sends me to TechNet TechNet serves the ball! and TechNet sends me back to MCOMM.

If there is any place I may report my findings please let me know.
